My ANA is 1:1280 - and has been for a while, but i just found out the ANCA test was weakly positive? What does this mean? I am still working on getting a full diagnosis (I've been ill for about 8 years) and we have been leaning towards lupus, but the ANCA is not an indicator for lupus is it?

No, that suggests vasculitis, although other conditions may also show positive ANCA. The vasculitis UK forum is very useful here, you might want to have a look there and ask for more detail.
